anyone have good advice? for cop like push-bar w/ brush guard .. deer wacker, bull bar, cow catcher

installs on stock body / frame

1993 XJ .. standard plastic front end besides bumper

want something strong .. not pretty .. light attachment would be cool

ebay stuff is $350 +

from what Ive seen .. pretty basic install for XJ

thought I would check here before dumpin $s

I saw some on country trucks today w/ welded in steel - mesh like inserts .. looks to be a good bird / big rock catcher

In my travels I see lots of: deer, elk, bighorn sheep, cows, reckless geese everywhere in my hood

I just dumped tons of money in this XJ .. don't need 1 animal totaling me ... thanks in advance

all are crap, wont take a hit for ****. Damage multiplier

Look into rigidco , Dirtbound offroad and jcr for a bumper with a grill gaurd

so buy a $400 bumper w/ winch mount from 4 wheel parts?

Look at the cherokee chat section. This is the 3rd thread about this so far this week. Almost everyone will recommend an offroad bumper.

10-4 thanks .. sorry, didn't search

4 wheel parts guy recommended it too .. since shipping would put a cheaper brush guard in same $$s as a full bumper that they have in stock

^ Nice bumper and guard..... Where did you get it?

That looks like the C4x4 bumper :

It is. It's not mine but I do want it.

Nates 4x4 out of michigan. Free shipping. That is the bumper I got. Ties into the frame in multiple places. Including through the steering box. I had to replace the steering box shortly after installing this bumper. That was about 8 months ago. Since then no complaints and I love it. Looks mean and tough. http://www.nates4x4.com/ProductDetai...roductCode=XJF

that bumper looks pretty beef, but trust me those headlight guards/brush whackers won't take a good hard hit very well. Ask me how I know...
